[FT] the Coats and Helios Ray hangout
|
The coat I had previously referenced here - This One is not the same coat now. It was an RA that looked Clydesdale-ish. Not sure if it's been replaced, or what exactly. I'll have to do some investigating.
I do have another new combination I just put together that I'm pretty keen on as well - Gelding.

WOW! that is a pretty one!

@Phoenix
I was just looking through your horses and I have to say I LOVE this one of Sirius. I think it is really nice as the horse looks like it is heading to join the others behind him, and in a way kind of represents the same misty qualities of the veil Sirius falls through when he dies. 10/10 (Or should I say 9 and 3/4?)

@howrse2902
Thank you so much!! That was what I was aiming for. |
|
Wake Me Up. Didn't intend for all the pink, but I like it!

@HaltSquare
I have always been a huge fan of that coat! I love what you did with it. @CloudHugger I like the pink! It makes it seem as though the horse is melting into the BG. Great job! |
Thank you! As I said before, I didn't plan for pink - I chose the coat because I liked it, then that background went with it, and decided "why not" and did pink for her name.
Here's another - Jai'galaar. His name means "shriek-hawk" in Mando'a.

@Phoenix
Thank you! I love that coat too and am quite happy with the combination. I was looking at getting another copy, but just noticed it already retired! Some of them go so quickly! I should probably pay more attention next time. I'm thinking of waiting and putting an unlimited HR on Frost and Snowflake, which I think is a VIP privilege. It can be hard to choose sometimes, especially with so many great new ones coming out. There are some incredibly talented artists on Howrse. I'm definitely not one of them.

@CloudHugger
Well it turned out great! Oh my gosh! Jai'galaar is such a beautiful combo! I love your style! @HaltSquare Oh no! I wish I would have gotten that coat... That's a great idea.All too many times have I had to change the BG of a combo because I like a different HR better. |

I made a new combo today with my mounting VA's...

@CloudHugger
Thank you! I adore that BG!! nice placement and I must say, I love the name choice! |
Thank you! When I saw her coat, I just had to name her that and I've always liked that background since I first saw it ^.^
Here's my first horse and his combo - Dapple Dash.

Yes, I agree! Dapple Dash is amazing! You have a great eye for color matching! I adore the coat also. It looks as though we may have the same combo style...
|
It's less colour-matching then "what coat goes well with this background?" or vice versa. Sometimes I'll have a specific idea in mind (I'm looking into mostly black coats with red for Jaster, a colt I'm blupping), but usually it's kinda spur of the moment. But thanks! Dapple Dash's coat name is Sternbild, if you're interested in it.
|
I compiled basically all the combos I haven't shown yet into a list. Putting it in a spoiler because it's pretty big ^.~ I hope the spoiler banner and all the links work. . .

CloudHugger- It really depends on the style of the individual. I personally like to have a BG that goes with the style and texture and makes the coat tell a story, rather than color matching.
And oh my gosh! I love all the realistic combo, my favorite coat style. I adore Starshadow. It reminds me of my home town in the Rock Mountains. |
I love her combo too ^.^ The coat and background go together incredibly well
|
@CloudHugger, I think my favourite is "When the skies fall" - the animation really brings the coat and background together I think.
